My Life as the Official Bed tester for Stow Creek Designs.....
It's all in a days work.....and just the best job any Italian Princess could ever dream of having....
First thing in the morning I have to check to see how many need to be completed and what we have to do....
then
naturally I have to check for softness...now this takes me some time as I have to fully check to make sure there are no lumpy beds....
then 
we move over to the sewing machine where my official station is set up...
then
comes a few naps once I know she has it all under control.
and then end result of a days work....
Just look at all these beautiful beds!!!
I think I may need a few more of these.....



















UPDATE:
Alot has happened since our move from New Jersey to California...
Princess Isabella has decided she wants to try the 
Show Dog World.
This will be a whole new adventure for us.  She will be a year old on March 2nd and has grown into a lovely girl.  Since she has show blood bred into her we thought it only fair to let her spread her wings.  So far she loves all the prep that goes into it and is a dream to work with.  Lets hope she has enough of what it takes to carry Mom...lol
These are a few photos we took of her in her learning process....


I am so tired after a training session.....but I love the pretty bows....
Double Such a perfect beautiful little girl.  She brought so much happiness back into our home.  Everything was perfect until April 11th, 2011
April 1, 2011.................The day finally came...!!!!!!!
I was ready for my first show....both me and Mom were very nervous but Dad went with us and so did my big brother Hashi.....Off to Las Vegas we went.......Mom had never been in the show ring before and neither had I but....since my Daddy "Qoccles DimmiDiSi" was a Multi International champion we figured I would know what to do once I got in the ring.....
This is my Daddy..."Qoccles DimmiDiSi


so here we are the day of the show.....getting ready.....oh Mom had such a hard time with my top Knot...but between the tow of us we got it in....it was not perfect but like they say  "No Yorkie ever won or lost because of the Top Knot"...






























Look Mom...we did it..!!!!!  Two days and two blue ribbons...oh what a happy day this was!!!!
and now the story starts.....so far she has been amazing and we were all so happy....Isabella was a dream...a perfect happy little girl....then on April 11, 2011 she collapsed on my office floor....totally went down...I grabbed her up and rushed to the vet with her......she could not stand and was barely consious....but by the time i got to the vet she was fine...typical right....but they ran a full blood panel and checked everything...they could not find anything wrong with her....we came home to wait for the blood panel results......everything came back normal...there was nothing wrong with her....but a few days later she did it again....same thing so back to the vet we go....this time she could no longer stand and could barely move on her own...my beautiful little girl seemed to be dying right before my eyes...and I nor my vet knew what as wrong....so i called my friend Linda because i knew she had a great vet and yes there was something wrong....so we went straight to her vet..Dr Bruce Whitaker....in Newport Beach.....I did not even know if she would make the trip...but she did....by the time we got there over an hour away she was much weaker...but she is also a fighter....

Sadly on August 5, 2011, Isabella lost her battle with this terrible disease.
